If you’re a venture-scale startup founder in Oregon or Southwest Washington, I’d love to learn more about what you’re building. More importantly…? I’d love to record our conversation and share it with a whole bunch more people who also deserve to learn more about what you’re building.

No stress. No gotchas. No difficult questions. Just you pitching your startup to some old dude on the Internet — and anyone else who will listen.

Not a founder…? No worries. You can participate, as well. So if you’re around here, you’re working for ANY startup anywhere, and you have permission to talk about that startup, I’m happy to chat with you too. Because people should know about all of the awesome startups that have a presence here — whether they’re headquartered here or not.

And yes, if you’re working with startup founders — maybe you’re an investor, a coworking space, a lawyer, or an accountant — please share this with the founders you encounter. To put it another way, “tell your friends.”

Like, for real. Tell them. Right now. (Heck, you can just reshare this trailer, Lazy McLazypants. It’s not even that hard.)

In a town that’s way over indexed on amazing founders filled with aggressive humility, we just need to take a few extra steps to get those incredible stories out there. And to tell the story — firsthand — of what people are building here.

I hope you’ll take the opportunity to join me — or encourage someone else to make that happen. Honestly, I am already looking forward to learning more about what you’re building. Please and thank you 🫶
